TAKATA RECALL- MERCEDES BENZ HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FULFILL RECALL OF AIRBAG WITH NEW REPLACEMENT FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED THEM AND THEY HAVE NO PLAN IN PLACE TO FIX. I WAS ALSO TOLD THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY INJURIES TO MERCEDES OWNERS. HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO GET INJURED.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WITH MERCEDES GREENWAY TO GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE RESOLVED. I HAVE NOT BEEN OFFERED A SOLUTION. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY 2008 MERCEDES BENZ C350 UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. THIS IS MY SOLE MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION TO WORK.

'TAKATA RECALL" IN AUGUST 2016 I RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE (2016070003) IN THE MAIL. I HAVE CALL SEVERAL MERCEDES BENZ DEALERS AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME THE PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MARCH 2018. IT'S BEEN MORE THAN A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL AND THE AIR BAGS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CALLED AT LEAST 5 TIMES AND ALWAYS GET TOLD THE "PARTS ARE ON ORDER" NHTSA #16V-363

THE DEALER IS TELLING US THEY WILL NOT TAKE OUR CAR FOR A TRADE IN AS THE AIR BAGS DO NOT WORK AND NO REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THEY TOLD US ON ONE WILL BUY THE CAR AS THE AIR BAGS DO NOT WORK. WE ARE NOW OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS!
